    SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X – Amazing Quality for the Price!
    I recently got my Nova 5X, and I have to say—they are absolutely fantastic!Unboxing & First ImpressionsRight from the start, the unboxing experience felt premium. The packaging and build quality immediately gave me the feeling that I had purchased a high-end product. If you’re upgrading from budget headsets, the difference in quality is very noticeable.Battery Life & PerformanceOne of the biggest selling points of the Nova 5X is the 60-hour battery life. In my experience, it’s slightly less, but not by much—it still lasts a really long time before needing a recharge.Nova 5X vs. Nova 7X?If you’re debating between the Nova 5X and Nova 7X, here’s my take:The Nova 5X wins when it comes to battery life.The Nova 7X might have extra features, but the value-for-money of the Nova 5X is incredible.Final ThoughtsFor me, this headset is 100% worth it. The combination of price, quality, and battery life makes it a perfect choice. If you want a great headset for gaming without spending too much, this is a fantastic option!

    All that they are hyped up to be. Absolutely the best bang for buck
    These are everything they are hyped up to be. Very comfortable. Long battery life. Crystal clear mic. The best surround sound positional awareness I have ever heard. I know EXACTLY what direction and distance the enemy is from me. The Sonar app is not quite as intuitive as it could be. And not all the presets for the games are actually tuned in to the best setting. Took me about 20 games and 3 hours of constant adjustment to get PUBG just right. But that is literally the only downside to these. NOTE: Make sure you get the Sonar app, as it will allow you to crank the volume for music. Otherwise, the default limiter level on them doesn’t go high enough to really jam out.

    It’s perfect…But
    If I could give half stars I would. If I could, I’d give it a 4 and 1/2, it’s so close to being perfect, but some small things kind of bring it down for me. Since I have a larger head, and am a particular type. I enjoy the headphones, but there are some things that I REALLY like, and things I DONT like. It’s still OVERALL recommended, and for this price, is okay. Compared to the normal SteelSeries site, which is more expensive…sadly, but I would say, overall a good purchase. Especially if you are coming from a headset that is much quieter, which I was, as a RIG 700HS, to this. It was a nice shift, and change of pace.Pros:Packaging was nice for the headphones, feels very clean, professional, it was a fun opening experience, especially for those like me, who do not often buy the more “luxury” type of brands, or items.Delivery was perfectly fine, thanks to Amazon delivering on a Weekend, that was nice. Too bad the rest of my setup can’t do that, haha, but still good!The band at the top feels really comfortable, doesn’t hurt the head at all, just overall a good feeling headphonesSimple mute button to mute the mic on the microphone, the microphone is also push in, and pull out, so it’s easy to put away, and you don’t have to worry about it, and it looks slick as well, without having a huge mic bulking out of it. Also, be aware, if you push it back, that will NOT mute it; you have to hit the mute mic button, on the back of the mic. It will give you a red LED, but don’t worry…you can remove that in the App!It also a chat mix, and game mix, to where you are able to raise, and lower between if you want things in your chat mix, like people talking, or stream elements going off, like follows and stuff, or you prefer your game, to which you cannot hear any of that. You can also keep it in the middle, where you can hear both.A really nice feature, is the 2.4 ghz, to blue tooth. It’s a simple button, boom, boom, switch back and forth. AND these headphones will lock into like your phone blue tooth, so you can have your headphones in blue tooth on your phone, and hit 2.4 at your computer, and later…when you hit Bluetooth again, your headphones will already be ready, and activated on your phone, if you had not turned Bluetooth off on your phone. It’s a great feature, and really neat!Cons:Size: The headphones can seem…a bit small? I don’t know how to explain it, but the arms that bring the earcups down more, for those like me with a larger head, it really doesn’t go out much. So, those with big heads, can find it a bit worrisome, as I was concerned it might not even fit my head. The arms just simply don’t go down that much, and support that wide variety of heads. But luckily! If you are thick headed, from left to right compared to up and down…SteelSeries has got you covered! It was great when it came to stretching it out to the sides…so that’s a plus!Shape: My ears are slightly too big, so it does sometimes shift and fall a bit for me, so that kind of sucks a bit, but the ears are still comfortable. Fits for long periods of time, so I don’t have a problem with that! It was easy to setup, not a problem at all on the PC.Software: My main problem is the software sadly…The idea is neat, but I will also say that, there are some issues that I would like to point out. Expect to do research to a degree on it, just because it’s a bit more complicated than I would really say it should be. Now…I’m not talking about the EQ’s themselves, that’s fine. I mess with that, and I have experience with that, but for those of you who don’t…Sonar: Expect to rely on SteelSeries’ Sonar. They have over 190 Pre-built EQ’s…Some are really good! But others….or rather most…are not at all. So, expect to use the ones they have as a base model and experiment from there. So, really…to get the most out of these headphones, coming up with your own EQ is pretty beneficial for the best sound quality possible. There are some GREAT videos out there, if you truly don’t know anything about EQ’s, but truthfully? It’s mainly just about going out and experimenting with it, and finding out what you like for your sounds!I will say, another thing…I don’t know, if this is just me not know it yet, (since I just got it today) or if it just isn’t a thing. However, I wish if I was using Sonar, and i had launched Baldur’s Gate 3, it would automatically switch to a Baldur’s Gate 3 EQ, and or another EQ that I have setup for that game to switch automatically too. Then, if I launch another game like Batman Arkham Knight (which DOESNT have an EQ) but I’ve set my own EQ to it, then it’ll automatically sense that game, and switch that set EQ. I think this is beneficial, and really makes it easier for those, who just wish to simply switch games, without having to go through, alt tab, switch EQ’s, etc., etc. It’s more of a small complaint I would say…since, Alt Tabbing really isn’t that much, but you know, it’s the little things!Overall Message: Great Headphones! They work great, they’re simple, they’re fun to use, it’s fun to mess with things, and if you have a quiet pair of headset, don’t worry…This one has you covered! (Little Tip: Turn off Sound Limiter in the settings if it’s too quiet for ya…Don’t worry, we got you head bangers covered!) But other than that, it was a blast to use, and am content with my purchase!

    Never going with Razer again.
    I’ve been on the hunt for the best headphones to work for the XBOX since last year. I had ordered the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro Wireless (white edition) and they did not work at all on the XBOX (unless you directly connect it via 3.5mm head jack to the controller itself). I updated the drivers from my computer, downloaded the software, called Amazon customer service, called Razer customer service, told me it absolutely works on the XBOX but it does not. They told me to order another one and overall wasted over 5 hours of my time. So I returned it. My first and last time ever getting anything from Razer ever again, it was a stupid waste of my time, arguing, and the guy was very rude in customer service.I saw the Logitech G Pro X2 Wireless but those also do not work on XBOX wirelessly, only when connected directly via 3.5mm.These headphones came in the same day (I ordered from 10am and delivered at 8:55pm), plugged the wireless adaptor to my USB hub I got for my XBOX, and boom they immediately work. They seem like good quality, soft, and comfortable. It was this easy the entire time to just get the SteelSeries Arctic Nova 5x and I wasted weeks of time, money, and energy from the Razer guys.I’ll update the review if anything happens to the headset within 6 months such as defects or anything of that sort. So far, I’m just happy I can finally use wireless headphones now for the first time in my life.

    Best Budget Wireless available
    I bought the Nova 5X to replace a Nova 7X that was broken by my toddler. I chose the 5X primarily because I was using my old Nova 1X as a backup and preferred how it fit on my smaller head compared to the 7X. The 5X is basically a wireless version of the Nova 1. It is incredibly light and can be worn for hours. I downloaded the companion app and everything works easily and instantly. Microphone quality is way better than the 7X based off friends I normally play with. I did switch to Wicked Cushions Freeze ear pads as I prefer their thickness and feel. The 5X is basically perfect for me. Highly recommend if you are looking for a wireless headset to work on just about everything.

    Qualita costruttiva buona, audio molto buono con surround virtuale ben fatto.Rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo!Speriamo durino nel tempo, a differenza delle rog con dongle morto a poco meno di un anno di vita e dato il reso grazie ad Amazon( assistenza asus inesistente!!!).Speriamo che steelseries sia un marchio più serio di asus.Per ora tutto ok con queste cuffie.

    It is a pretty good headphone. It came with no problems at all and was not used before.

    Daha önce Corsair Void Elite Wireless kullanıyordum. 2 sene sonunda mic bozulunca Steelseries denemeye karar verdim. Günlük ortalama 8-10 saat bilg. başında oluyorum ve kulaklık benim için çok önemli. Ayrıca migrenim olduğu için rahatsızlık veren ve başımı sıkan kulaklıkları birçok kez denedim ve kullanamadım. 1-2 haftalık deneyimlerimi aktarayım. Öncelikle eski kulaklığımla karşılaştırırsam Steelseries kulaklığı aşırı hafif ve rahat. İlk gün 18 saat kullandım herhangi bir rahatsızlık vermedi. Şarj konusuna gelirsek şarjı gerçekten çok iyi benim gibi biri için yaklaşık 3 gün rahatlıkla kullanabiliyorum. Corsairda günlük şarja takmam gerekiyordu. Mesafe konusunda corsairla aynı kapasitede hiç bir farkı yok. Uygulamada mesafe arttırma diye ekstra bir seçenek var mikrofon kalitesini düşürüp menzil arttırıyor ama denemedim yada gerek görmedim. Ses kalitesine gelirsek corsairden çok daha iyi. Mikrofon olarak ise ben corsairden çok memnundum fakat Steelseries bu kulaklığında onuda mükemmel bir şekilde eklemeler yaparak corsairden çok daha iyi olduğunu söyleyebilirim. Ayrıca Steelseries GG + Sonar gerçekten çok kullanışlı. Yıllardır İCUE ile çebelleştim her update geldiğinde bir problem hata vb sıkıntıları yaşadım. Ama Steelseriesin programı çok daha konforlu. Kulaklık ayrıca telefon + bilgisayara aynı anda bağlanıyor (bluetooth ve wireless). Bilgisayarda bir iş yaparken telefon çaldığında hiç kalkmadan kulaklıktan cevaplayabiliyorsunuz. Çok iş görüyor. Telefon uygulaması da gayet güzel bir çok EQ var her oyun için ayrı ses düzenlemişler. Tavsiyem sonar uygulamasına forum sayfarlarında yada steelseriesin discord uygulamasında bir çok EQ var onları ekleyin.Ürüne verdiğim puan 10/10Kalite – Konfor – Kullanım – Software – Ses & Mikrofon 10/10
